short term practical wants:
- redundant git repository backup
- redundant crypto key backup (eg, plan B to regain access to other
servers/identity)
- personal information store: address book, calendering
- VPN/tor/ipv6/cjdns end node (as a gateway for other traffic)
- general purpose shell
The FUSE (filesystem in userspace) library/module is implemented in
many/most *NIX operating systems, and would allow a specific on-the-fly
virtual file access like you describe to be implemented in a popular
programming language (bindings for python, ruby, etc). Classic FUSE

As a potential solution to the never-ending recommended/supported hardware
problem, i'm making some effort to either extend or duplicate the

Spoke with James and a few others here at the OpenITP event, notes and a
rought plan are below. Some of this feels like reinventing the wheel; a
future/mature implementation might use:
D-Bus for message passing, PolicyKit for access control, Augeas for
read/write
or
building off
Also, just to be explicit, this would provide process separation, but does
not address local user authentication or access control. Eg, in this
scheme plinth would have permissions to edit all configuration files and
would need to authenticate users for access control on it's own (it
